Unable to determine upstream SVN information from HEAD history

I get this on every git svn command I try. I am using git version 1.6.4.2 on OS 10.6

The initial git svn fetch works, and i can do further fetches after that, but they do not enter the log or update the working copy.

git svn fetch just downloads the revisions into your local repository. You still need to either git merge $remoteBranch to get the changes into your current branch. You can update your current branch in one step by running git svn rebase, but that only downloads the new commits for that remote branch.

The same would be true for a normal git repository. Doing a simple git fetch doesn't pull the new commits into your current branch. It simply downloads them and you need to git merge them into your branch.
